Justin Turner (3B, LAD) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 130 CURRENT ADP: ~154 overall ANALYSIS: Justin Turner projects to a tasteful .355 OBP to go with a noice .457 SLG that combines for the eighth-best OPS among 3B in Steamer's spreadsheets. I know the hammy has you worried, but JT gave us hope a few days ago talking about a very […]

Let's Overreact to Spring Training News and Tweets: Part Two

Baseball is back, spring training is here, and every tweet from every beat writer is getting scrutinized to an outrageous level. It's wacky season at its best, but instead of shying away from that, we're going to lean into it. I've found some bits of news that are interesting and also, at times, amusing, and […]

Carlos Correa (SS, MIN) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 85 CURRENT ADP: ~100 overall ANALYSIS: It seems like Correa has been around forever, so it may come as a bit of a surprise that he's only 27-years-old and entering the prime of his career. With six years of Major League Baseball experience heading into last season, it's clear that […]

Pablo Lopez (SP, MIA) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 110 CURRENT ADP: ~132 overall ANALYSIS: Miami Marlins starting pitcher Pablo Lopez was on his way to another solid season in 2021 before it was cut short in July. A rotator cuff strain in his pitching arm forced him to the 10-day IL and then a setback during rehab eventually resulted in […]

Tommy Pham (OF) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 240 CURRENT ADP: ~261 overall ANALYSIS: Pham stole 14 bases last season but has a history of good wheels, stealing 25 in both 2017 and 2019 and also swiping 15 in 2018. He stole six in just 31 games during the COVID-shortened season, so it's fair to say that Pham […]

Joey Votto (1B, CIN) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 120 CURRENT ADP: ~143 overall ANALYSIS: It had been more than a decade--a decade as in like 10+ years!--since Votto lastly put up a Swing% above 43% (43.9 percent last year) as that had not been witnessed by any pair of eyes since the year 2010 when he went for […]

Tyler Wells (RP, BAL) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 350 CURRENT ADP: ~401 overall ANALYSIS: Sure, the 4.11 ERA doesn't look overly impressive. That being said, this is why, especially for relievers, you have to look past the ERA. With a 29% strikeout rate and a 5.4% walk rate, his K-BB numbers were quite impressive, leading to him generating […]

Rhys Hoskins (1B, PHI) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 110 CURRENT ADP: ~128 overall ANALYSIS: After seeing a lot of success early in his career, Rhys Hoskins has fallen off in the minds of many. Digging into the numbers was interesting, as outside of a few outlier stats (.226 AVG in 2019 for example), he hasn’t been that much […]

Nestor Cortes Jr. (SP, NYY) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 310 CURRENT ADP: ~339 overall ANALYSIS: Cortes rocks a five-pitch mix with three primaries (four-seamer, cutter, slider) and embraces his slot as a Mario Brother. What more could you ask for? Alright, we’ll go on. Cortes had bounced around the league, spending 2019 with the Yankees before a wayward 2020 […]

Charlie Blackmon (OF, COL) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 200 CURRENT ADP: ~233 overall ANALYSIS: Sure, he is not the Blackmon of old. It is doubtful that the Rockies 35-year-old outfielder will hit 29+ home runs from back in 2016 to 2019. You are hoping for 15+ home runs with the potential to hit 20, which would be gravy. […]

Alec Bohm (3B, PHI) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleeprs

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 265 CURRENT ADP: ~284 overall ANALYSIS: Bohm shined for the Phillies in his first stint in the big leagues. He finished the shortened season second in Rookie of the Year voting after hitting .338 and posting a 137 OPS+ and .881 OPS. Many expected him to carry that success over […]

Justin Verlander (SP, HOU) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 90 CURRENT ADP: ~105 overall ANALYSIS: Houston Astros pitcher Justin Verlander missed last season after undergoing Tommy John surgery in October 2020. The 39-year-old is expected to be ready by Opening Day, whenever that might be. He was terrific in his entire last season as a starter, owning a 2.58 ERA, 0.80 […]

Josh Donaldson (3B, MIN) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 185 CURRENT ADP: ~200 overall ANALYSIS: I can convince you about anything and everything, but I for sure won't convince you of Donaldson getting younger any time soon. Bad news: as far as I know, age doesn't positively regress. Good news: some folks age like wine. Enter Josh Donaldson. Speaking […]

Franmil Reyes (DH, CLE) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 105 CURRENT ADP: ~120 overall ANALYSIS: Cleveland Guardians designated hitter Franmil Reyes was solid in 115 games last year, bashing 30 HRs with 57 runs, 85 RBI, four stolen bases, and a .254 batting average. His knack of hitting for power comes with some strikeout issues, though, and that continued in 2021 […]

Charlie Morton (SP, ATL) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 80 CURRENT ADP: ~96 overall ANALYSIS: Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Charlie Morton bounced back in his first year in Georgia, posting a 14-6 record, 3.34 ERA, 1.04 WHIP, 7.7 BB%, and 28.6 K% in 185.2 innings. His 3.18 FIP backs up his success, and he's now produced a sub-3.60 FIP the last […]

It's time for a NASCAR Xfinity Series race at COTA, part of a tripleheader weekend for NASCAR. Last week, Noah Gragson won his first race of the season. Based on how he's been driving, it won't be his last win. He already has four top fives and leads Ty Gibbs and A.J. Allmendinger by 19 […]

Robinson Cano (2B, NYM) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 430 CURRENT ADP: ~463 overall ANALYSIS: Cano missed all of the 2021 season due to another PED suspension. He was coming off three straight seasons where he hit no more than 13 home runs but still hit for an excellent average. As he gets older, the power is deteriorating, but […]

NASCAR Truck Series: DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks for COTA XPEL 225 (3/26/22)
